There are a lot of people who have been single for a while and are so desperate to be in a relationship that they have a hard time once they enter a relationship and discover it’s not ideal.
Relationships aren’t always a walk in the park; they take a lot of work, and there are some hard truths you have to face once you’re in one. Of course, having a happy relationship with little to no issues is possible, but no one is perfect.
To open yourself up to the possibility of true love and stable companionship, here are a few ‘relationship truths’ you should be aware of.
Not everything is going to fall into place when you’re in a relationship
As someone who was single for most of her young adult life, when I finally entered a relationship, I had this sort of naive understanding that all of my problems would be solved if I had a boyfriend and was happy. However, that is not the case.
The problems you had that didn’t pertain to your relationship will likely remain there once you enter one. The only difference is that now you have a partner who can potentially help you with those problems.
Accept that not everyone is going to like you
It can be a harsh blow when you don’t get rejected often, and then you do when you’re trying to date someone.
Being rejected by someone you want to start a relationship with can be heartbreaking, but it’s moments like those in which you have to remember that you can’t be everyone’s ‘cup of tea.’ Just because you get rejected by one person doesn’t mean you won’t find another.
